I purchased 4 spiders from John and I'm very happy with the transaction! Great communication and he was very accommodating when it came to shipping, as I made the purchase before I left for vacation and then had several weeks of sweltering hot weather when I returned. The spiders arrived in...
I'm actually quite glad to hear that countries are serious about illegal exportation/importation of wildlife. Hopefully this will act as a deterrent for this type of activity going forward, as it seems brown boxing is extremely common in the hobby.
Basically, this species shouldn't have even...
As others have mentioned, once you have a larger collection you'll always have something to watch.
I now have over 30 T's and there's always spiders molting, rearranging their enclosures, sitting out, and walking around, which makes the hobby way more entertaining IMO. Plus, even with a larger...
Glad to hear he's getting back into the hobby! His videos were really the reason I first got into T's years ago, hell, I still watch his old vids from time to time.
Yeah, if you really want that species and it's a great deal, I'd jump on the opportunity.
I always buy more slings than I intend to keep, that way I'm pretty much guaranteed to get a female and the other males/extra females can be sold/traded/sent out for breeding.
Great experience!
I purchased a female B. albopilosum and couldn't be happier! The spider arrived in wonderful shape, packaged to perfection, and extremely healthy. Price was very reasonable and communication was great!
Thanks again,
Mike
After a little over a month in my care (and a lot of superworms) she's fattening up nicely! Top pic was taken 5 mins ago, bottom was right after I got her in May. As you may be able to tell, she is a hair kicker lol
Well, my 3" female has very similar behavior. She'll regularly climb the sides of her enclosure, and when I open the door to do maintenance/feed her, she'll typically come and see what's going on. In my case, though, she does spend a lot of time under her cork hide, mostly coming out in the...
Cleaned off my lenses and was able to get a clearer pic. I did overestimate the size as well, it's closer to 1.5" fully stretched.20180611_180136 by Veitchiiman13 posted Jun 11, 2018 at 6:07 PM
Pic taken through a microscope, about 2" LS E. campestratus juvenile. I think I can make out the two spermathecae and furrow but wanted a second opinion.
So you ask for people to prove you wrong, and judging by the poll and all the replies they have thoroughly done so, but all you do is disagree with everyone's opinion?
This thread is a joke.
I personally prefer spiders I actually see sitting out or walking around, not a web in a corner or a hole in the ground. I personally can't understand for the life of me why anyone would want a fossorial T, why pay for a spider you may only see out once a year? Even if they otherwise have...
In a water bowl: No
I'm sure some may drown in nature if they become trapped in their burrow during monsoon rains. I think you'd have to purposely attempt to drown a T in captivity for it to happen.
